Removing a Stuck Charging Handle

Equipment Necessary:
- Number Two Triangle Bit
1. Unscrew as many of the four screws on top of the handle as you can.
If you cannot access all four screws, focus on removing the two closest to the charger release button. This will allow you to lift the cover and proceed to the next steps.
2. After removing the screws, lift the cover to expose and remove the rubber end piece.
3. After removing the rubber piece, slide out the remaining plastic insert to access the latch.
4. Press down on the latch to release the handle.
Important: If needed, you can break off the top cover for better access to the latch, as it will need to be replaced regardless.
